Ingredients
- 500 grams ground beef
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 4 units eggs
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 4 large lettuce leaves
- 1 large tomato
- 1 large avocado
- 0.5 medium red onion
Directions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly integrated.
Step 2
Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1.5 cm thick.
Step 3
Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest on a plate.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of coconut oil. Crack the eggs into the skillet and fry until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your preference, about 3-4 minutes for sunny-side up.
Step 5
While the eggs are cooking, prepare the toppings: Slice the tomato, avocado, and half of the red onion.
Step 6
To assemble the burgers, use the lettuce leaves as the 'buns'. Place a lettuce leaf on a plate, then stack a beef patty, slices of tomato, avocado, and red onion.
Step 7
Top the stack with a fried egg and finish with another lettuce leaf.
Step 8
Repeat the assembly process for the remaining burgers. Serve immediately and enjoy!
